Recruitment & Talent Partner
Hybrid – Kendal | Leading Technical Engineering Services Organisation
Are you a proactive, self‑starting recruiter who thrives on full ownership of the hiring process? This is an exciting opportunity to join a global technical engineering services organisation and lead all internal recruitment activity while supporting the wider Talent & Development function.
The Role
As the Recruitment & Talent Partner, you’ll be the driving force behind hiring across the business. This is a hands‑on, fast‑paced role where you’ll manage the full recruitment lifecycle — from initial briefing through to verbal offer — ensuring a smooth, professional and engaging experience for both candidates and hiring managers.
You’ll work closely with stakeholders across technical, operational and corporate functions, building strong relationships and delivering a well‑structured, consistent recruitment process.
Key Responsibilities
* Own and manage the end‑to‑end recruitment cycle for all vacancies
* Partner with hiring managers to take detailed briefs and support the approval process
* Advertise roles, source talent, screen CVs and coordinate interviews
* Deliver a seamless candidate experience from first contact to verbal offer
* Build and maintain talent pools and pipelines for future hiring needs
* Keep recruitment systems, data and reporting up to date and accurate
* Manage agency relationships and ensure consistent candidate quality
* Collaborate closely with the Training & Development team to:
* Identify internal training needs
* Coordinate training activities and onboarding
* Ensure inductions, equipment and documentation are in place
* Support the development and review of internal learning pathways
What You’ll Bring
* A self‑starter mindset with the confidence to take ownership and drive activity forward
* Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple vacancies at pace
* Confidence working with stakeholders at all levels
* Experience in internal recruitment or agency recruitment with an in‑house approach
* A proactive, solutions‑focused attitude
* A genuine interest in people development and supporting internal growth
Why This Role Stands Out
* Hybrid working with a supportive team and strong leadership
* Exposure to both Talent Acquisition and Learning & Development
* The chance to make a real impact in a growing, global engineering business
* Competitive salary, generous benefits and bonus potential
